Bavnehøj Forsorgshjem

Bavnehøj Forsorgshjem is an approved residential support service in Føvling, Denmark, near Vejen, Rødding and Esbjerg. It welcomes people from across Jutland and Denmark who are experiencing homelessness or other vulnerable circumstances and need support to move forward. The home provides services under sections 110 and 107 of Denmark’s Social Services Act, including temporary shelter and longer-term residential support, depending on residents’ needs and referrals.

Bavnehøj’s approach centers on a substance-free community built on mutual respect, recognition and responsibility. Residents are expected to be motivated to live without substance use and can take part in a positive shared environment while having a private room. Staff offer individual support and action plans, helping residents create daily structure, develop relationships and work toward greater stability and independence.

Support may include help with finances, contact with public authorities, doctors and other professionals, and addressing personal challenges. With round-the-clock staffing and clear, secure surroundings, Bavnehøj aims to provide a dignified, meaningful stay and practical support for each person’s next steps.
